The Tick

First episode is up on Amazon Prime.

Peter Serafinowicz as The Tick. It was an alright episode, 29 minutes so not much to go on. Dealt with backstory mostly for, Arthur(sidekick) but the action scene was great, and made me laugh too.

Will definitely watch more.

Definitely the best of the new 'pilot' shows.

Did you see the Jean Claude one? Had a few laughs but not sure how long a show would last spoofing himself before running out of ideas.

I was truly disappointed with the amazon original pilots this season.

Sure The Tick was the best of them (barely), but the other 2 were just dire. and I thought the Bacon couldn't do a turkey.

watched the pilot last night, it was reasonably funny, but i cant imagine sitting through an entire season of it. think the jokes will get old fast.

Prefered the Patrick Warburton version ( 2001 ), now that was damn funny, god knows why they cancelled it after 1 season.

I feel like I want to give this a chance.. but I'm struggling to motivate myself to watch it at the moment. Is this dude invincible or what? I've never heard of The Tick, I only happened to stumble across a teaser clip as I'm a fan of Peter Serafinowicz...
